Talking Pen that records information you
write<http://www.yourtechvision.com/content/talking-pen-records-information-
you-write>
Once my students get good at technology they expand their wings and find
other things. A blind or low vision student  lets a sighted peer use this
pen and then have the information recorded for themselves to use later. A
great Gift or stocking stuffer for anyone who can write and needs that
extra feedback to hear the lesson. Great for school and work. Have the
information you need repeated when you have time. Anything you write will
be recorded in this pen.

LivescribeT EchoT Smartpen--Click on link to open: Amazing smartpen
remembers everything you hear, say and write, then lets you replay your
recorded audio with a simple
tap<http://www.brookstone.com/echo-smartpen?bkiid=SearchResults%7CCategoryPr
oductList%7C650606p>.
Save your notes and recordings to your computer, or quickly share them with
others as pencast, PDF or audio files. Use the EchoT smartpen and special
dot paper to take notes in meetings or lectures. With just a tap, EchoT
begins recording the audio and digitizing your handwriting--automatically
synching the ink and audio. By tapping your notes, you can replay the
conversation from the exact moment your note was written, so you never miss
a word. The included LivescribeT Desktop software helps you back up your
notes, search them, play them back from your computer, or share those notes
with others.

Advanced processing power and substantial memory--all in a Montblanc-sized
pen!
The rechargeable EchoT smartpen lets you capture and save important data in
simple pen-and-paper format, making it easy to access and share. The 4GB of
memory can record 400+ hours of audio* and thousands of pages of notes.
